WVDPAC Webinar: Tech, COVID & Kids: Reset Your Home for Healthy Habits
October 1, 2020 - 1 minute readAbout this Event
On average, teenagers are checking their phone over 150 times/day and spending about 7 hours/day on screens, unrelated to school and homework – and this was before the pandemic. These rates skyrocketed during the lockdown and now children, teens and adults all need to rely on tech more than ever. Given technology’s links to problems like burn-out, anxiety, addiction, cheating, and cyberbullying, parents must now reset their family’s tech habits towards solutions for learning, connection, self-care and adaptability.
Join psychiatrist, best-selling author and mom of three Dr. Shimi Kang, M.D. for a fascinating journey into the science and solutions for:
* How technology is impacting your child’s brain, body and behaviour
* How to differentiate between healthy, stressful and potentially addictive tech
* How to reset your family’s tech habits for a successful school year
* How to maintain healthy tech habits in your home during the pandemic and beyond.
This interactive webinar will be divided into three 15 minute sections with Q&A for each part. Dr. Kang will end with an open 15 minute Q&A conversation.
